I am at the netball courts playing netball, suddenly I get thrown the ball. I catch it with excitement. I throw the ball down the courts to the Goal Shoot so she can throw the ball into the hoop. I cheer my team on, she jumps to shoot the ball in the hoop, then she misses the hoop and the other team get the ball. They start to pass the ball down the courts, I start to defend the other player because I am Wing Defence. Suddenly they drop the ball, I grab the ball and start to pass it down to my team.

Then the ball get’s back down to our end of the court. Goal Shoot tries to get the ball in the hoop this time. It goes quiet she shoots the ball and it goes into the hoop. I can hear everyone clapping with excitement.

Suddenly the bell rings ding ding ding it is half time. We go and sit down and have a drink of water, we go back onto the courts and practise some passing and shooting.

Ding Ding Ding the bells goes and we are all ready to start again. We walk out onto the courts going into our places ready to start. Beep the referee blows the whistle and we are starting. It is the other team’s start from center, they pass it down the court. I’m ready to defend the other player here she comes.Smack. I hit the ball out of her hands. Then I pass it down to my players the ball gets back down to our end of the court. She shoots the ball up high into the air. GOAL now we are all excited and buzzing with excitement we are winning the score is 8 to 7. We have 5 minutes to go before we finish. I am going to make the most of my last 5 minutes playing this game. I run down to call for the ball as they start from center. I get thrown the ball and I through it all the way down to the goal area. She shoots the ball in the hoop, “YEA” everyone is clapping. We have 2 minutes left, I think to myself our team can do this we can get one more goal. We stand out on the courts for a group talk and say we can do this all together. We go back to our places and are ready to start. BEEP the whistle goes here we go. The ball get passed down the court we've got the ball, I get the ball and I pass it all the way down to goal shoot we have 30 seconds we can do this, she shoots it.

YEA. She got the goal. We have won. We are all so happy we stand in a line and shake hands. Our coach comes up to us and says well done I am so proud of you guys. He announced the player of the day. Then we go home, proud and happy of ourselves.

Chuck Patterson is a awesome famous Wave Skier. He was born in California and grew up skiing in Lake Tahoe during the winters. He did kite boarding and tow surfing in the warm waters of Hawaii, in the summers. He got to once compete in the surfing America USA sup championships, at Huntington beach. Most of Chuck's life is spent in the water skiing. Once Chuck filmed a shark going around his board he was freaked out and scared.

Have a look at the Dogo News web site that I got it off, you can watch some videos and look at some cool photos and read some of his writing.

Top HouseMy favourite event was thread the needle because, it was awesome leading the group first through the needles and running to try and beat the other team.Something I was proud of was how well I was at helping the other kids and giving every activity a go.Something I found challenging was when you had to walk to the other side on sticks with your team, my team went left right left right to try and help us to get to the other side and win the race.
